Leeds United are thinking of sacking coach Javi Garcia. The future of the Spanish coach is put into question after their current position in the Premier League table. The side has only managed one point in their last five ties. The Peacocks lost 4-1 in their previous tie against Bournemouth. The Supporter Advisory committee of the club asked to replace the first team manager ‘immediately’.
The Whites appointed their current coach Javi Garcia for a short period. This appointment took place in February after the sacking of Jesse Marsch. The Spaniard tactician had to race against time with just 13 matches. The Whites are just one point clear of Leicester City who are fighting to avoid relegation.
Columbian defensive midfielder Jefferson Lerma shattered the hopes of Leed to end their winning drought yesterday. The player scored a brace in just 24 minutes of the game to double the lead. The visitors although got one back through Patrik Bamford right before halftime. The visitors couldn’t keep the equaliser for long as Solamce scores it to make a three-goal lead. Substitute Antoine Semenyo scored the final goal in injury time to get the three-goal cushion.
Leeds United will now face Manchester City in their coming fixture. The table runners-up have increased their form and have scored more than 10 goals in their last three matches. Javi Garcia will look to save the job by taking the challenge to win against Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.

Which managers Leeds United are scouting reportedly to takeover the post ?
Leeds United might consider firing Javi Garcia for the team’s poor performance. With just four games in hand, options get scouted for getting a call from the Peacock hierarchy. Leeds kept the option open for only short-term managers as per reports.
In the list of contenders, Lee Bowyer makes a name. The former Leeds midfielder can presumably become one to get a call. The former Birmingham manager is free and may accept the job as an interim caretaker. This may boost the morale of the fans and the players.
The team may also ask Michael Skubala. The English Tactician may get elevated as interim caretaker for the short span of four games. Although none of the coaches is approached as of yet the club considers keeping them as a priority.
Leeds United will lock horns in their away fixture against Manchester City. The team would try to gather full points to decrease the chances of relegation. The match would be tough as Cityzen would also look ahead to gain a full advantage to surpass Arsenal in the title race.
